Cottontail

From Tokyo to the Lake District - a universal portrait of love, acceptance and family loss in which the true journey toward forgiveness and reconciliation will prove the hardest of all.

Kenzaburo's wife and Toshi's mother, Akiko, asks them to scatter her ashes at the place she loved most as a child – Lake Windermere - but the father's and son’s fraught relationship threatens to upend their journey.
